Jade Without Fragrance

   Chapter 307 Difficulties

   Seeing that Lin Chan's face was not right, Lin Shi hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

   "It's nothing." The good upbringing made Lin Chan unable to spit out the food she ate, so she swallowed it, and the nausea became stronger.

  The old lady had some guesses, so she invited a doctor to consult Lin Chan after the meal.

  The doctor took the pulse carefully and congratulated the old lady: "Congratulations to the old lady, the great aunt of your house is very happy, but the month is still shallow, so be careful."

  The old lady was overjoyed and gave the doctor a generous reward.

   "How long?" Lin asked.

  Lin Chan blushed slightly: "The menstrual period is a few days late, and I only feel uncomfortable today..."

   "So, Shang Shufu still doesn't know?"

  Lin Chan nodded slightly.

   "If that's the case, I'll go back earlier to rest, and I won't have any activities for the next two months." The old lady told her confidant, "Cuixiang, you can take your aunt back home in person."

   On the way back, Han Baocheng was still confused, squeezed into the carriage and asked Lin Chan in a low voice, "Why do you still use the old lady's mammy to send it?"

  Lin Chan couldn't say anything for a while, and finally said: "You will know when you go back."

   When she returned to the Shangshu Mansion, Lin Chan didn't have to worry about how to open her mouth, and Madam Dou, whose boudoir name was Cuixiang, told Mother Han the good news.

  Mother Han couldn't help but be overjoyed, and after sending off Madam Dou politely, she immediately invited a doctor to check her pulse.

   Soon Shang Shufu was enveloped in an atmosphere of joy because Lin Chan was pregnant.

   Several families are happy and some are sad, and the atmosphere in the palace has been a little gloomy recently.

  The battle was won. After the most urgent problem was solved, a new problem was placed in front of Emperor Tai'an. One is the displacement of the people caused by the war, and the other is the problem of the vacancy of the crown prince.

   One has no money, and two has no one.

   In the eyes of civil and military officials, no heir is more terrifying than no money.

  This day, the ministers brought up this topic again.

  A censor with determination to go out and put forward a proposal for adoption.

   Another minister euphemistically mentioned King Liang.

   Tai'an Emperor walked away with a dark face, leaving behind the ministers to look at each other, talking in twos and threes as they walked out.

   King Jing flew back to the palace and told Princess Jing of what the court was discussing.

   "Bad, the emperor may adopt a step-prince from the clan!"

   Princess Jing stood up abruptly: "Did you choose our family?"

   "No, the official just mentioned this, and the emperor didn't seem very happy." King Jing walked in a hurry, sweat on his forehead, and even drank a few big sips of tea to moisten his throat.

  Princess Jing was speechless: "Then what is your lord anxious, I thought someone had chosen it."

   King Jing shook his head not optimistically: "Even if you don't want it now, it's not a matter of time. Is it possible to restore King Liang?"

  If that's the case, why are you fighting the Northern Qi so hard? Anyway, sooner or later.

   "If I really want to adopt, I would choose the younger ones. Shuo'er and Huan'er are both old, so I can't pick them." Princess Jing was not panicking.

   It means that the rich folks who have a few rich people have no sons to inherit from the clan.

   "The princess is also right. I thought that Shuo'er was in the limelight and left an impression on the emperor..."

   Princess Jing lowered her voice: "It's not a bad thing to choose Shuo'er, right?"

   Just now she was misled by the prince's eagerness, but now that I think about it, once she is selected, she will be the prince!

   "You think about the old prince Qi Ming."

   Princess Jing's smile froze.

   "Think about King Liang again."

   Princess Jing's expression became even stiffer.

   "There is no more dangerous errand than the prince. Although wealth is a risk, we are already rich enough, and it is not worth taking this risk."

  Princess Jing nodded again and again: "Your Highness is right, you should pay more attention when you are outside. We can feel at ease if the emperor has made a decision earlier."

   Princess Jing's idea is exactly the idea of ​​Baiguan Xungui.

  Whether it is to restore King Liang or take over from the clan, you can decide earlier, Emperor!

   Emperor Tai'an has not felt this kind of aggressive persecution from his courtiers for a long time.

   It was late at night, and the palace lamps in the bedroom were still bright.

   Emperor Tai'an sat quietly, without moving for a long time.

   "Your Majesty, rest early." Liu Chuan persuaded softly.

   Emperor Tai'an sneered: "When you sleep, you have to listen to those people's noise."

   And the problem he faced was not something he could escape by covering his ears and not listening.

  The crown prince is related to the inheritance of the society, not a family matter.

   On the side of Prince Liang's Mansion, Prince Liang also did not rest at this time.

   He was too excited to sleep!

   "Is this king's opportunity here?" He walked barefoot on the bluestone bricks under the moonlight, not feeling cold at all.

   The inner servant who was serving closely looked at King Liang's appearance and was both happy and uneasy.

  The court heard the voice of restoring King Liang, and the close servant of King Liang was naturally excited, but King Liang who tore off the disguise in front of him made him murmur.

   He didn't dare to say it, but he always felt that King Liang was not normal.

   "Why don't you speak?" King Liang stopped and asked, staring at the servant.

   Those eyes were pitch-black, inexplicably frightening.

  The servant staggered his gaze and said respectfully, "This servant has little knowledge, so I don't dare to talk about such a big thing..."

   King Liang kicked over: "Trash, what's the use of you!"

   Now these dog slaves are really not as useful as the ones in the East Palace before. When he recovers, he must replace all these useless ones.

   When the waiter saw King Liang's cold eyes, his heart froze, and he coaxed his concerns: "Don't worry, lord, the emperor is only your son, this is a matter of course..."

   "It's logical -" King Liang liked this word very much, "Yes, it's logical, hahahaha..."

  The night was silent, undisguised laughter could be heard from far away, the inner servant wanted to persuade, but he did not dare to persuade, and his expression was very tangled for a while.

   All over the palace of Liang, some people who heard the laughter were surprised, some shook their heads, and someone handed the news into the palace early the next morning.

   "King Liang was walking outside barefoot and laughing wildly?" After hearing the report, Emperor Tai'an's face changed and changed, and finally returned to calm.

   "Liu Chuan."

   "The slave is here."

   "Go and release the news of Wu Guiren."

   "Yes." Liu Chuan replied respectfully, sighing for King Liang in his heart.

  The eldest son of Miaohong's root is always able to cut off the chance of being a prince at a critical time, which is also a real skill.

   On the same day, there was news from the palace: Wu Guiren had been happy for three months.

   Originally, a little noble person was happy. In a normal harem, even a small splash might not be raised, but at this time, it would be like a stormy sea. It swept from the harem to the court, and I don’t know how many people were affected.

  The emperor's concubine is pregnant, and the voices of the adoptive clan son and the restoration of King Liang can be stopped for a while, at least there is no need to make the emperor unhappy before Wu Guiren gives birth.

When the news of    reached Prince Liang's mansion, Prince Liang's eyes were straight: "Impossible, impossible!"

  Unable to accept the reality at all, King Ryo rolled his eyes and passed out.
